When World War II began, Germany's Luftwaffe was the most powerful
air force yet seen, achieving victory after victory in tandem with
the German Army. But as other great powers rose to combat Hitler,
the supremacy of the Me-109, Stuka, and Focke-Wulf soon began to
pale before vast fleets of Allied warplanes which German industry
could hardly match.
Nevertheless, while "flying till they died," Luftwaffe pilots
continued to write a record of heroism and innovation, until at the
very end of the war they nearly gained the edge again with their
aces flying the world's first jet fighter, the Me-262.
In this large, lavishly illustrated, full-color work we gain an
intimacy with the daily life of Luftwaffe pilots as never seen
before. From their uniforms to equipment to everyday sundries,
drawn from incredible collections of memorabilia, we can share
their experiences on airfields or in the very skies of Europe,
above the dark cause which unfortunately they served.
